Sleipner Knife Blank - S38 (S38)

Sleipner Knife Blank - S38

This blank arrives ground and hardened, which removes the two hardest steps from a knife build.

Sleipner is chosen where edge retention matters more than stainless behaviour. At 60-62 HRC it holds an edge through serious work and still sharpens sensibly.

Certified Voestalpine steel, hand ground in our workshop, professionally heat treated by Voestalpine before it ships. That is the whole process.
